I got a Koala in Denmark eating an apple. I'm sorta like everyone else, but not too much.

[Crescendo]

I got Emu in Delaware eating an ummagine. I think I can safely say I am one of the 2%.

[tomatie]

I couldn't make up a fruit starting with an O, and then realised that I was thinking in Dutch instead of English really freaky though...

[amarise]

[Blake]

I got Denmark Koala Apple

I'm one of the 2%. Good, yes?

[autechre]

[jellyoflight]

I think it's because the mojority of peopkle would pick the number 5...

actually, its because no matter what number you pick if you multiply it by nine and add the numbers in the new number you will get nine as the sum, subtract 5 and you get 4, so no matter what the countryy starts with a D

Erm....they said country, Delaware is a state. I also thought Delaware before any country, so don't feel bad.
